Does a blind man dream the same way as everyone else?

Interesting question.
You and I know what birds look like.
But if you've never been able to feel one, I wonder what that does to your imagination ?
You can describe a tree. But if you can't climb it, to physically get some idea of height, would you imagine it the same way ?
In a movie called Night on Earth, a young blind woman (Beatrice Daal) gets into the back of a cab and the driver watches as she applies lipstick; feels and brushes her hair. Even applies mascara!
And he's fascinated !
So he starts asking dumb questions(the ones we would all ask ! Lol)
And she explains that she loves dancing. Feeling her body move in ways different to how it normally would !
How when she listens to music, she puts her hands on the speakers and the music flows through her ! She can FEEL it !
Stuff like that !
